From Deb Peterson:
Ever since I joined the Dr. Seuss book club in second grade, I've been in love with learning. The great thing about learning is that it doesn't have to stop when you graduate from school. This site is about the myriad ways we learn when we're past age 25.
Some of us are after the satisfaction of earning a GED credential. Some are studying for graduate degrees. Others are lifelong learners of every age seeking the thrill of learning something new, whether it's another language, an art, or how to identify rocks. It doesn't matter. I hope you find here whatever you need to keep learning. If you don't find what you need, talk to me. I'll do whatever I can to help.
